L O N G D E A D G O N E

by John Wesley Harding

from The Name Above The Title

(chord fingering not specified in this version)

Key: A major

[A] [F#m] [A] [F#m]
[A] It's so easy to [F#m]forgo
[A] It's so hard to for[F#m]get
[A] It's so hard for to [F#m]realize
[D] That I'm not dead [Bm]yet[E]
[A] When everything that we [F#m]wanted
[A] Is beyond beyo[D]nd
[Bm] And all that I h[E]oped for is
[D] Long dead g[A]one - alright[E]

[A] So how can I [F#m]sleep
[A] In this memory [F#m]bed
[A] When I feel like a [F#m]grave
[D] With a tomb for a [Bm]bed head[E]
[A] With your name and [F#m]my name
[A] Carved deep in the st[D]one
[Bm] Now faded aw[E]ay 'cause we're
[D] Long dead g[A]one
Well we're long dead g[E]one
We're l[C#]ong d[C#7]ead g[F#m]one - y[E]eah
[A] Now [E]faded a[F#m]way bec[D]ause we're[E]
[D]Lo-o[A]ng d[E]ead g[A]one

[E] [F#m] [D] [E] [D] [A] [E]
[A] Love lies be[F#m]wildered
[A] Checking its [F#m]pulse
[A] To see if it com[F#m]pares
[D] To anything [Bm]else[E]
[A] And two things still [F#m]beating
[A] Never as [D]one
[Bm] And one thing lies ch[E]oking 'cause it's
[D] Long dead g[A]one
Well it's long dead g[E]one
It's l[C#]ong d[C#7]ead g[F#m]one - y[E]eah
[A] One th[E]ing lies [F#m]choki[D]ng 'cause it's[E]
[D]Lo-o[A]ng d[E]ead g[A]one

[D] So here rests in pieces
What[A]ever it w[E]as
That [F#m]we could adm[D]it to
F#major Bm
Whatever it was
That was [E]me and you

What was me and you

What was me and you - yeah

[A] [F#m] [A] [F#m] [A] [F#m] [D] [Bm][E]
[A] So why won't I j[F#m]ust
[A] Let it die and get [F#m]rid
[A] Of the truth that we would [F#m]both
[D] Would've rather kept [Bm]hid[E]
[A] Better to live a lie[F#m]
[A] Than pretend that you're n[D]ot
[Bm] And live out a l[E]ove which is
[D] Long dead g[A]one
Well we're long dead g[E]one - yeah
Well we're l[C#]ong [C#7]dead [F#m]gone - y[E]eah
[A] Don't l[E]ive out a l[F#m]ove which [D]is - yeah[E]
L[D]o-o[A]ng d[E]ead g[A]one[E]
[F#m] Never l[D]ive out a l[E]ove which is
L[D]o-o[A]ng d[E]ead g[A]one[E]
[F#m] Never l[D]ive out a l[E]ove which is
L[D]o-o[A]ng d[E]ead gone - y[A]eah[E][F#m][D][E][D][A][E]

Chords
~~~~~~
As this version doesn't specify which chord fingerings should be
used, I haven't included a chord chart. If you want to know the
fingerings, see the other posting of this song with specified
chords. N.B. F#major is not written as F# purely to make it
clear that it isn't F#m.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Notes
~~~~~
1. Learn the song by playing along to the album track.

2. Feel free to use different versions of the same chord or slighlty
different varieties of the same one to colour your music. For
example, I use a Dsus2 to link the D and Bm chords in the 4th line
of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th sections.

3. If you don't want to use these linking chords (such as the Dsus2's
all through this CRD, you needn't).

4. If you're new to barre chords, and would rather stick to open ones
you could transpose the tune to the key of G major, which involves
shifting all chords done by a tone:
This version: Transposed to G major:
[A] [G]
[F#m] [Em]
[D] [C]
[Bm]C# & C#7 [Am]B7 should be okay
F#major Emajor (just plain E)
If you want to do this and have a capo, putting it on the 2nd fret
will get you in tune with the album track.

6. A big thankyou (THANKYOU) to Alan Pulliam for supplying the lyrics
to Long Dead Gone and Backing Out. They made my job a lot easier.

7. Very important this: Have Fun.
